Abstract

Nowadays consumers tend to substitute their habits in consuming cow milk into soy milk since it has reliability on health issue, taste, and healthy lifestyle. Referencing to prior researches, health consciousness and main theory of planned behavior (TPB) factors including attitude, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control significantly influence consumer purchase intention. Researchers aimed to analyze health consciousness influence toward consumer purchase intention to cow milk and soy milk and formulate managerial implications to escalate consumer purchase intention to cow milk and soy milk. This research was conducted in Jakarta, Bogor, Depok, Tangerang, and Bekasi (Jabodetabek) area from October 2023 until April 2024 with 300 respondents. Researchers used voluntary response sampling as sampling method. Analysis methods used by researchers were descriptive analysis, structural equation modelling-partial least square (SEM-PLS) analysis, and importance performance matrix (IPMA) analysis. Results showed that health consciousness doesn’t influence purchase intention to cow milk significantly yet influences purchase intention to soy milk significantly. Otherwise trust, attitude, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control influence purchase intention to both milks significantly. Furthermore, consumer purchase intention toward cow milk and soy milk can be escalated through improving performances of trust and subjective norms. For trust, producer needs to promote producer reputation, keep up the production standards, and design informative and attractive packaging. For subjective norms, producer needs to conceptualize informative and attractive advertising, conducting sales promotion, public relation, personal selling, and direct marketing.

Abstract

This study aims to analyse the financial feasibility of the ground coffee production business undertaken by coffee farmers and processors by applying local innovations at the cultivation, post-harvest handling, and coffee processing stages in the coffee production centre of Garut Regency. This study used a quantitative approach to provide a comprehensive understanding of the feasibility of the ground coffee business with local innovations applied by coffee farmers and processors in Garut Regency. Local innovations in coffee production include pruning techniques, grafting, solar dryer dome technology for herbal coffee making, the use of local roasting machines, and the utilization of coffee waste into value-added products such as ceramics, organic fertilizer, and dodol. Quantitative analysis of coffee processing business feasibility based on NPV value of Rp 38,394,163, Gross B/C 1.08, Net B/C 1.25, IRR 17.73 percent, payback period 7.7. These results showed that the business carried out by ground coffee processors in the production centre area is feasible. These results of the sensitivity analysis show that an increase in the price of coffee fruit raw materials at a limit of 16.67 percent and a decrease in ground coffee production at a limit of 11.37percent still produces a positive value and the business is still feasible. These results of the switching value analysis explain that the tolerance limit for the increase in the price of coffee fruit raw materials can be tolerated if the rise is no more than 26.66 percent and the decrease in ground coffee production does not exceed 7.023percent if it exceeds within 1 year then the business is not feasible.

Abstract

The supply of red chili in various regions in Indonesia still relies on production from Java. Different uses of production factors are insufficient to overcome production gap between Java and other regions, so measuring other factors is required. This study aims to analyze the factors affecting red chili production, identify the technical efficiency level of red chili, and analyze factors affecting the technical efficiency of red chili in Java and outside Java. This study used data from the 2013 Agricultural Census (ST2013) and the 2014 Horticultural Crop Farming Household Survey from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS). The SFA (Stochastic Frontier Analysis) method was applied to estimate the technical efficiency levels and the factors influencing it. The results revealed that factors such as seeds, harvest area, N-fertilizer, K-fertilizer, manure, pesticides, and labor affect red chili production in Java. Outside Java, the influencing factors are seeds, harvest area, N-fertilizer, P-fertilizer, manure, pesticides, and labor. The technical efficiency of red chili in Java (0.640) is lower than outside Java (0.691), indicating outside Java more technically efficient than Java. The significant factors affecting the technical efficiency of red chili farming in Java include education, participation in farmer groups, participation in cooperatives, land type, growing season, subsidies, technology, certified seeds, and access to credit. Conversely, outside Java, only cooperative participation, land type, growing season, and technology have a significant impact. Assistance in using subsidized inputs and access to credit in Java and the development of cooperative institutions outside Java are policies that can be taken.

Abstract

Kapok range is a natural fiber that has considerable potential in the form of cellulose and can be enhanced by its physical and mechanical value cellulose. This study aims to analyze the character of cellulose produced from kapok and isolation. The cellulose isolation method used a factorial complete randomized design, namely the first factor of NaOH concentration (4%, 6%, and 8%) and the second factor of extraction time (40, 50, and 60 minutes). The cellulose isolation process showed that the method did not significantly affect the yield of randu kapok cellulose. The highest yield and degree of whiteness resulted from the treatment of 4% NaOH concentration and 40 minutes of extraction time with a yield of 6.54 ± 0.82%. The following result showed that the treatment had a significant effect on the results of the degree of whiteness. The highest degree of whiteness resulted from the treatment of 8% NaOH concentration and 60 minute extraction time of 30 ± 0.7. The cellulose isolation results of kapok resulted in cellulose content of 90.15 ± 0.81%, hemicellulose content of 3.6 ± 0.52%, and lignin content of 0.91 ± 0.03%. The analyzed properties provide a strong basis for considering the potential use of such cellulose nanofibers in various industrial applications, such as the manufacture of sustainable composite materials or other valueadded products.

Abstract

Used oil is a commodity that can be sought to increase its economic value, one of which is used as an absorber of essential oil from ginger. Ginger has essential oils as anti-inflammatory, but the oil obtained is relatively small and volatile so that it reduces the healing effect. Used oil has the potential to be a massage oil and ginger oil adsorbent to be used to treat inflammation. On the other hand, leaf waste can be converted into activated charcoal which is used as an adsorbent for the treatment process of used oil. The aims of this study was to determine the physicochemical properties of used oil obtained from the extraction process of ginger rhizomes with adsorbed used oil. The method used was the treatment of used cooking oil by adsorbing it using activated charcoal from activated leaf waste. Used cooking oil was then used for solvent extraction of ginger oil content to conduct organoleptic tests, physicochemical properties, inflammatory tests and GC-MS analysis to see the content of the resulting used oil. The results showed that the ratio of ginger to adsorbed used cooking oil with the highest anti-inflammatory effect was at a ratio of 1:1 with good organoleptic results, gingerol content of 11.6%, camphene 3.75% and eucalyptol 6.79 resulting in an antiinflammatory effect close to pure ginger oil of 59.18% with a contact time of 4.55 hours and reaction order 1.

Abstract

Sri Lankan Cassava Mosaic Virus (SLCMV) has emerged as a significant threat to cassava production in Southeast Asia since its initial detection in Cambodia in 2015, with recent outbreaks in Vietnam and Thailand and its first detection in Australia in 2024. This viral disease, transmitted by the whitefly Bemisia tabaci and infected planting materials, poses a substantial risk to Indonesia's cassava industry. Studies from affected countries demonstrate yield losses of 16-33% and starch content reductions of 22-38% in infected plants. This review analyzes SLCMV's current status and potential impacts on Indonesian cassava production and proposes management strategies based on regional experiences. We identify critical risk factors, including widespread vector presence and informal planting material exchange networks. Recommended preventive measures include strengthening quarantine systems, implementing enhanced surveillance programs, developing rapid diagnostic capabilities, and establishing clean seed certification systems. Our findings emphasize the urgent need for coordinated action to protect Indonesia's cassava industry from this emerging pathogen.

Abstract

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), as a common goal for all countries, place the issue of food security as one of the main targets of development in the world. In early 2019, the world faced COVID-19, affecting many aspects of human life, the economy, society, and above all, leading to a global food crisis. This article identifies and analyzes the effects of technology and economic recession on the food security crisis. The transformation of the Indonesian economy towards food security has recently become a major issue debated by many parties. The analysis method used in this study is a random effects model using panel data from all provinces in Indonesia from2019-2021 by using STATA software. Based on the data, the food security index is the dependent variable, while information and communication technology and gross regional domestic product are the independent variables. According to the results of the F-test (overall) conducted to test the significance of the model, these variables influence food security in Indonesia. Furthermore, this study’s results show that the economic recession’s impact is significant on food security. At the same time, technology has little impact on food security in Indonesia.
